Very Best Of

Babyface and l.a. reid

You've got that look in your eyes
And i've got plans for 2
Though you're the kinda girl
Who likes to take her time with love
I'd gladly wait forever for you

But in the middle of the night***
I know something ain't right
We've got something special girl
Let's give it a try

1 night of touchin**
2 nights of trust
3 night of huggin
Makes 1 night of love

1 night of touchin**
2 nights of trust
3 night of huggin
Makes 1 night of love

You've got that love in your heart
And i've got love for you
But i'm the kinda guy
Who likes to get right to the point
I wanna give my lovin to you

So in the middle of the night
When i'm holdin you tight
I'll show you how precious lovers
Love thru the night

Repeat chorus** 2x

Repeat chorus***

Of love
You know you owe it to me
Just 1
Tender touch of loving

Gimmie your loving

1 night
Of love
You know you owe it to me
Just 1
Tender touch of loving
And holding
Gimmie your loving

Repeat chorus**

i got so much i want to say
I got so much i want to do
There never seems to be enough
Time to be with you, so let me
Hold you in my arm and when the
Moment here and gone i'll be
Missing you. it's not fair when
The morning come and the night
Must fade, ooh i can't wait to
Hold you again cause there just

Chorus:

Not enough hours in the night
( to hold you), not enough hours
In these arms, to show you, the love
I feel inside, there just not enough
Time to love you.
Not enough,not enough

Verse 2

I want to hold you in my arms
I want to look into your eyes
I want to spend the rest of
Time making love with you, oooh,baby
I love so much, no time would ever be
Enough to be close to you, it's
Not right when the moon light fade
And the kisses end, ooh, i can't
Wait to kiss you again (yeah)

Chorus:

Not enough hours in the night
(to hold you), not enough hours
In these arms (to show you), the
Love i feel inside there just not
Enough time, (ah), not enough minutes
In a day (not enough to tell you that i
Love you), not enough time to do the things
(the things i want to do, yeah), not enough
Hours in the night, to love

If i can stop the clock every kiss
Would last forever, if i can spend for-
Ever here by your side, still wouldn't
Be no enough time for you and i, no,no

Repeat chorus

Ad lib

l.a. reid and babyface

I'll give the sun
The rain
The moon
The stars and the mountains
I'll give you the world
And all that you wish for
And even more
Girl i love you more than you could know
And that's for sure
I'd climb the highest hill
Cross the widest sea
Nothin could discourage me
And i pray that you will be
Always there for me
Forever more

Ready or not**
I'll give you everything
And more
All that i've got--it's yours
I'll give you everything
All that you're looking for

I'll give you my heart
My soul
My time
My love is a fountain
I will be your earth
And all that you need for
And even more
Cause girl i love you more than words can show

My love is pure
I'll walk a thousand miles
Sail a thousand seas
Nothin will discourage me
And i pray that you will be
Always there for me
Forever more

Some people live saerching for love
And some don't believe no more

And i'm thankful because you're fine
Cuz it feels good to hold you
And each time you tell me you'll be here the rest of my life

Chorus

Some people mistreat a specail love
Find it hard to stop doing wrong

Til they're water starts running dry

To be a good man
Don't wanna hear no more your goodbyes

Everybody needs someone to love

You give him all your love, well
You know you don't get that love in return
How could i get you to know
And though you seen it comin'
Girl you just couldn't get that man to ever learn
So this time i hope you move on
Cause you know, i'm what your missin
And you know that i'm good and its good that you need
So please tell me baby

Can he love you like this
Can he give the good lovin you need
Top it off with a kiss
Can he make you go all night long (hook)

I know it might seem dirty
But i'll do what i gotta do just to make you mine
And it was always a matter of time
You see i know that you want me
Cause i can tell by the way that you squeeze
You can't get that kinda lovin at home
I'll be strokin you, rockin you, turnin you on
And girl you know, that i'm what your missin'
And you know that i'm good and its good that you need
So please tell me baby, baby, baby

Repeat hook 2x

Oh cause you know, that i'm what your missin
And you know that i'm good
So please tell me baby noooo

Repeat hook 2x

Can he love you, baby can he love ya
Can he love you , baby can he love ya
Can he give you everything that you been missin
Give you the love that you know that you need

I was in love with you
And gave my heart to you
I did my best to keep you satisfied
You took the love from me
And used it selfishly
You did not give back your
Love to me at all

I gave the sun to you
You said it was too bright
I gave you diamond rings
You said they didn't shine
I gave my world to you
But you said it's not enough
What in the world could i have done
To make you be so rough

'til you do me right
I don't even want to talk to you
I don't even want to hear you speak my name
'til you do me right
Only wrong is gonna come to you
Nothin' good is gonna come 'til you change
Change your ways
Until you change your evil ways

Girl i was there for you
Someone you could talk to
How could you just keep breakin' my heart
What did i do to you
To make you be so cruel
I don't understand why you've been so wrong

I tried to be your strength
You said i was too strong
I tried to compromise so
We could get along
I gave my love to you despite
Your evil ways
I guess it's clear to me there's only
One thing left to say

[chorus]

There's a time when you know what you
Feel inside your heart
It's tellin' you that somethin' feels strange
You don't have to deny it
All you gotta do is just try it
You'll find our love grows
Stronger if you're willing to change

[chorus 2 times]
